To begin, I opened Instagram on my smartphone as well as right here's just what I saw:
It's a bit complicated, however the switch on the bottom that's highlighted in blue? That's not the present sight you have, even though that's certainly a typical interface convention. You get on the main feed which is accessed by the home button on the reduced left. Odd, I understand.
Tap on the camera symbol on the bottom-- facility!-- with heaven emphasize. Now your camera will trigger and also you'll see a preview of the picture you will take:
To take a picture, faucet on the blue button. Making a (short) video clip, tap on the video camera icon to the right of the switch.

Successive, I'll fine-tune the Comparison because I discover that on my iPhone, at least, it's always just a little bit below I choose:
Again, utilize your finger to readjust it with the slider, as well as tap on the check mark to commit the modification or the "X" to discard it if you transform your mind.
Right here's exactly how it looks currently:.
